    I supose i might have migrated to Uldah... if it was more appealing to the eye. I find it utterly discusting, along with the outside of Thanalan.

    Where as Limsa is a nice port town with lots of boats and water views. Gridania is a green green... green forest atmosphere, which would be my fav, cept its practically deserted. Uldah is just tall walls and beige and grey colored tones, maybe the dreary colors turn me off. Or its the fact that all my enemys congregate there, haha.

    Im sure in time when the world opens up, so will the prime town location. If it is the middle where ppl tend to be most, then my theory of Gridania being the middle might win after they open Ishgard and the surounding areas. For those of you who wish to know my theory its summed up with, Grid being the central airship hub, which can take you to Thanalan, La Noscea. And once the other 2 citys open up (Ala Mhigo and Sharlavan), The black shroud would be the area youd have to cross to get to them. But SE can can change my idea with simply putting the airship hub in Ishgard and that will most likely be the new popular town. (kinda like how XI worked out). I dont like to hold tight to theorys cause its only speculating the possable future. I just wait to see what will happen.

    Linked wards would solve popularity problems, but i find that making things too easy.
    Delivery boxes would be a better solution to that issue. You can easily shout on ur LS to check something in another town and trade via delivery.

    I noticed that very recently, and thank you for bringing it up, looking at the CE cloth map. If you wander about in Gridania you also come across a gate to the North, near the Wailing Barracks (Lancers Guild) that obviously goes somewhere also, but is currently unopenable. No doubt it will lead to new regions once they open up.

    Personally, I've stuck to Gridania as best I can - you don't solve anything for anyone if you all head to the same city, plus I like being in the Black Shroud much more than Thanalan. I was there in the final days before the server went down, but that was mainly due to carrying out a mission that sent me out there. No doubt I'll head back to Gridania once the servers go up again.

    I hope that we don't end up (once systems are improved and such) with Ul'Dah still being the main hub (or any of the other cities). Nothing bugs me more than entire regions/cities being deserted just because "Everyone else is there". World of Warcraft is terrible for this as well, with everyone congregating in Orgrimmar on the Horde side. I hate Orgrimmar damn it, even with its make over. Nothing kills the entire feeling than everywhere but one place being a ghost town, I'll tell you that.
